168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Luca Marini is desperate to overturn a difficult start to hꦑis Honda career at the scene of his best-ever result.

The MotoGP of the Amerꦍicas this weekend allows Marini a chance to tap into great memories of a year ago.

Then riding a VR46 Ducati, Marini finished second at the Circuit of the Ame💦ricas to register his top ♉result in three seasons in the premier class.

He has since switched to♋ Repsol Honda as♎ Marc Marquez’s replacement.

After two rounds of the 20𝔉24 season, he is one of three riders yet to score a single 🦩point.

But encouragingly, Honda head to COTA knowing they 💃won last year’s grand prix amid a dreadful year. Alex Rins of LCR Honda finished ahead of Marini.

“Austin holds a special place in my heart and I have good memories from 🤡last year,” Marini said.

“We arrive in a different situation this year but I am still posit🦂ive that we can make more progress in🧸 America.

“It’s a very particular circuit in Texas and you’ve seen that Honda has had something there in the pas൲t.

“No matter the track, our focus and intention stays theꦿ same as we keep build🔯ing this project.”

Marini has finished a drab 20th and 17th in the two grands prix to kicksꦡtart his career as a factory rider so is 🦄hoping for improved fortunes in Texas.

Joan Mir, his teammate, has fared marginally better with seven points overa൲ll.

He has finis🎀hed 13th and 12th in the first two Sunday r💯aces.

Unlike Marini, hi🐈s memory of last year at COTA is not encouraging.

The race in America was among nine grands prix that Mir started but failed to finish in a woeful deb🥂ut campaign with Honda.

He said: “Going to America is always nice, we only get to see the fans there once a ye🔜ar so it's important to put on a good show.

“We go to a third very different track in three races so we need to look and understand how the Honda is go🙈ing there.

“COTA is one of the most unique layouts on the calendar and especi꧑ally the first sector on track is very specific.

“Quite a lot of the track has been resurfaced since we were last here so 𒁃I am looking forward to seeing how those changes impact the track.”
